Community college only offers associates degrees. Mostly kinda general ones.

On the bright side, if my CCAF credits transfer, I'm probably close to two-thirds of the way through a degree. I think I had sixty some credits and associates degrees (there, at least) are ninety.

I suppose the chances they'll take everything are slim, though.

You'll never know until you try. Do take various classes to see if there is something else you might like to do.

SirKit got tired of doing the corporate thing, and is looking to get into contracting and building; things he's always enjoyed, but never thought he could support a family doing. Since our kids are now grown and mostly gone, we have the flexiblity to live on less and try something new. He may actually try some statistical consulting while doing the building stuff, but he's excited about the construction work. It allows him to do what he does best; solve problems, especially if we're working on a house that has already been built. We'll have to work with what's there, and if we want to do something different, figure out how to make that happen. We're already doing that with our house here. There are aspects of it that we've never liked, and we're now being able to change those things, and add new rooms and bathrooms because of the changes.

You are in a perfect time of life to make changes. Go for it!

Depends on the community college. I got my first two years in comp sci at the local one. I have a degree and everything and they transferred my credits to a four year school. Call them and set up an evening appointment to talk to a credit counselor, he can tell you if your stuff will transfer.

General degrees? Maybe... the one I went to wasn't that big and it offered things like comp sci, mathematics, biochem, dental hygeine, welding, six different culinary degrees... all sorts of things.
